Car Seat Poll
Hi Everyone !! I already registered for the Britax, but I want to register for another car seat that is cheaper for my husband's car and also to give people options when buying gifts. I know Consumer Reports give good ratings to Evenflo but I can't find the link(if everyone has it, please post it...I remember seeing the information without suscribing to this site) to find out which one since they have different models. And I also know about Graco Comforsport but it's also the same. If you have any of these, please let me know which model....are you happy with it? etc..any information appreciated.
Thanks so Much !!!

Re: Car Seat Poll
I also have a Britax as the main carseat and purchased the graco for my husbands car and my parents. It is fine for the few times we use it, no complaints It is also a lot smaller than the evenflo, it looks like the evenflo would take up the whole backseat. Either one is a good choice.

Re: Car Seat Poll
we just recently went into BRU and did some research on this. i didnt want to register for two britax b/c they cost so much.
we found out obviously Britax is the best - especially the new one that has side impact protection. but they said it gets such great reviews b/c it is tested around the world.
they said Evenflo Truimph is the next best one but that it is only tested here.
so that was what we picked. but i do know that the Evenflo infant seats do not get as great reviews as the second stage ones. (at least that is what we were told)
SO CONFUSING!!!!
ETA - now u just have to hope they really know what they are talking about.

I surely hope they know what they are talking about. I feel like you have to take a class just to find out about features and safety with all these choices....
And which Evenflo Triumph you decided for? I think they have various ones....

I put the Graco Comforsport as well because I thought the same thing with the Evenflo....that it was kind of bulky and then the one I liked didn't have headrest...so confusing.....

I like that one as well but it has conflicting reports from some users. I checked BRU reviews and the one Barbara had posted yesterday for me. (Thanks Barbara !! ) And I'm deciding between that one and this one.....Image Attachment(s):
